TEACHING: Student Work (Selection)
+ Tectonic Temperaments (Spring 2025)
Professional Elective. Cal Poly Pomona, Department of Architecture
In Tectonic Temperaments, students explored tectonic expression—how materials, construction, and structure translate abstract ideas into built form within the constraints of real-world building - through the work of seven architectural practices: PRODUCTORA, Karamuk Kuo, Thiermann Cruz, Ed Ogosta, Amunt, Sauter von Moos, and Amunátegui Valdés.
+ Tectonic Temperaments (Spring 2025)
+ Linear City (Spring 2025 + Spring 2024)
Professional Elective. Cal Poly Pomona, Department of Architecture
Linear City engaged architecture students in a semester-long exploration of the architectural, urban, and sociocultural significance of a Los Angeles boulevard.
+Linear City I: Wilshire Boulevard (Spring 2024)
+ Linear City II: Crenshaw Boulevard (Spring 2025)
+ Late Registration (Fall 2024)
Topic Studio. Cal Poly Pomona, Department of Architecture
Late Registration explores the program of the library beyond traditional concepts of centralized knowledge and towards a more democratic dispersion of information. In their proposal for a new library in Inglewood, students are asked to reimagine the library as a center for intellectual and social exchange that functions as vital hubs within their communities.

+ Corners, Crowns, and Plinths (Fall 2023 & Spring 2024)
Professional Elective. Cal Poly Pomona, Department of Architecture
How does a façade negotiate a corner? How do buildings transition to the ground and “meet the sky”? And how does the deliberate articulation of these conditions generate a narrative intrinsic to the building and its relationship to the context, producing meaning beyond mere pragmatic problem-solving? In the seminar Corners, Crowns, and Plinths, students were challenged to examine these critical junctures.

+ Second Year Design Studio: Leimert Park Community Arts Center (Fall 2023)
Design Studio. Cal Poly Pomona, Department of Architecture
In the Fall Second-Year Design Studio, students design a public building as a way to explore space and program and with a particular focus on circulation to understand sectional relationships, spatial qualities, and programmatic adjacencies.

+ Studies in Material Culture (Spring 2017)
Professional Elective. Cal Poly Pomona, Department of Architecture
This seminar explored how materials shape the language of architecture, examining materiality as an integral part of the architectural design process, not as a separate exercise. The goal was to develop a 'syntax' or set of principles for using materials, and students conducted in-depth research on various material categories to work towards this.
